Asin Festival


The Asin Festival was held today at the town of Pasuquin Ilocos Norte. This is an event held every year featuring their very own product which is the salt or locally called asin. It is on its third year now.


A dance parade was staged depicting the process of salt making. They danced to a uniform music entitled Pangasinan which was just launched this year. Dancers wore Ilocano costumes and displayed baskets, pails, and rakes used for salt making. A big stove with a vat cooking salt with all the smoking effects was showed around.
